Droid Razr HD launches in Canada, US absence grows more conspicuous

Waiting on Verizon

Canadian carrier Rogers has announced that the Droid Razr HD, there called the Razr HD LTE, is now available in the great northern frontier.

The Canadian carrier is offering the new Motorola smartphone at $99.99 with a three-year contract, though it can also be purchased standalone for $599.99.

Although the Razr HD LTE hasn't yet appeared on Rogers' website, The Verge has been assured that it's available in the carrier's physical retail locations across Canada.

The Droid Razr HD's Canadian launch comes following news in September that the new Android smartphone would arrive in Germany in October as well - making the absence of a U.S. launch date all the more conspicuous.

But where's the US launch?

U.S. Motorola diehards are beginning to get frustrated by Verizon's refusal to commit to a launch date for the Motorola Droid Razr HD.
